Andre Johnson remains undecided about future with Texans

Andre Johnson returned to the NFL news cycle Wednesday. But the veteran wide receiver didn’t provide any clarity about his future with the Texans, acknowledging he’s unsure whether he’ll be in uniform Sept. 7 for a Week 1 matchup against the Washington Redskins at NRG Stadium.

Johnson was a little more positive about the potential he could end his stalemate with the Texans and appear in training camp, which begins in late July. But the franchise’s all-time leading receiver in receptions, yards and touchdowns remained vague about his overall plans, while speaking publicly for the first time since May, when he expressed frustration with the Texans’ rebuild.

“Hopefully. We’ll see what happens,” Johnson said. “Training camp’s three weeks away, so we’ll see what happens.”

The seven-time Pro Bowler, who will turn 33 on Friday, missed all of the Texans’ recent offseason workouts, including a mandatory minicamp in mid-June.

Texans coach Bill O’Brien has taken the high road during the stalemate, regularly saying he greatly appreciates Johnson’s past contributions to the team. General manager Rick Smith and owner Bob McNair haven’t commented about Johnson’s holdout.
